"I wouldn't miss a Kim Harrison book for anything."--Charlaine Harris, author of the Sookie Stackhouse novels New York Times bestselling urban fantasy superstar Kim Harrison is back with Pale Demon--her ninth electrifying adventure featuring contemporary witch Rachel Morgan. This time Rachel's leaving the Hollows, on a cross-country road trip with a pixy, an elf, and a vampire, as she races to clear her blackened name at a California witches' convention in order to avoid an eternity of torment at the claws of a soul-devouring demon. Pale Demon is Kim Harrison at her gothic best--combining mystery, action, intrigue, paranormal romance, and breathtaking dark fantasy in a delicious witches' brew that fans of Laurell K. Hamilton, Charlaine Harris, Stephenie Meyer, and Jim Butcher simply will not be able to resist.
Condemned and shunned for black magic, Rachel has 3 days to get to the annual witches convention in San Francisco and clear her name to live. If not, the only way to escape the death sentence is to live in the demonic ever after... for ever after. Banned from the flight lists, Rachel teams up with elven tycoon Trent Kalamack, who has his own mysterious business on the West Coast. But a witch, an elf, a living vampire and a pixy in one car for over 2300 miles? Talk about a recipe for certain disaster, even without being targeted for assassination. For a fearsome demon walks the sunlight--freed after centuries of torment at last to slay the innocent and devour souls. But his ultimate goal is Rachel Morgan, and even embracing her own demonic nature may not be enough to save her.
